Have you ever seen a wrench/spanner this big 😂

Found this today really huge! It has some writing on but too rusty to make out what it says, not sure on what era this could be either but pretty cool find

Really I wondered what it would be used for, never seen one so big lol

Likely a spud wrench. The pointed end was used to align holes in sheet metal so bolts could be inserted.

I would think that wrench would've fit some of the smaller nuts and bolts used on this dragline I stopped to get a photo of along I80 east of Rock Springs in 7-6-2010. I've seen it out there working many times from the road, but this time it was out of the pit and had a few service trucks pulled up next to it.

I bought a set of big ones that came from a coal mine in KY.
